Use the Formula Editor like a calculator

You can enter number values in formulas to make calculations, just as you would on a calculator.

Click a blank cell where you want to add your formula, then type the equal sign (=) to open the Formula Editor.
Type the equation you want to calculate, using values and arithmetic operators (for example, +,-,* and /).
For example, if you type the equal sign (=), then type “1+1” in the Formula Editor, the cell returns the result of 2. You can also use parentheses; if you type 4+6*(3-1), the cell returns the result of 16.
